The polyglot publication should not be based on beliefs about what user agents
do. Doing that would just get us another Appendix C. It should be based on
logical inferences from the normative statements in HTML5, XML, Namespaces in
XML and the DOM.
The correct thing to say here is:
Tabs, line feeds and carriage returns in attribute values must be encoded as
numeric character references. At least every second of consecutive spaces in
attribute values must be encoded as numeric character references (so that there
are no consecutive literal spaces in attribute values). This is because XML
parsing doesn't preserve unescaped tabs, line feeds, carriage returns or
consecutive spaces in attribute values.
